The Cobalt 60 sources emit gamma rays which irradiate but do not make objects radioactive. Normal Decay "Two reasons the cobalt sources are being replaced at this 'time," H. G. Olson, Phoenix Lab su- pervisor said, "are that the Cobalt 60 had normally decayed, and de- mand for use has increased. "The increase in strength means we can undertake research pro- grams we couldn't do before, and we can irradiate faster because the dose rate is higher." The strength of the source is now about double what was avail- able before, he said, but not simply because fresh #radioactive cobalt has been installed. The new con- figuration of the source gives a higher radiation "flux." This means that experiments can be put in and removed more quickly because they get their total radia- tion dose faster. Cobalt Sources Demand on the services of the Phoenix Project's two cobalt sources has increased substan- tially. during the past year from both University and outside re- search groups. "Mote people are using gamma rays for experiments," Olson ex- plained. "Also, it's routine now to Blondy Announces For Congress Seat, DETROIT (A) - Sen. Charles Blondy (D-Detroit) filed nominat- ing petitions for a congressional seat Friday. He will run in the new First Congressional District, which in- cludes much of the territory in which he has been winning legis- lative elections since 1940. provide irradiated bone and car- tilege for hospitals. "And, as one researcher pub- lishes the results of his experi- ments with gamma irradiation, more and more get ideas as to how they might also use gamma, radiation in.their fields." Food Sciences Much of the demand recently has come from the department of food sciences and department of horticulture at Michigan State University of Agriculture and Ap- plied Sciences. They are experi- menting with radiation as a means of retarding food spoilage, and are also trying to get beneficial mutations in plants. Fish pasteurization through ir- radiation is being studied by the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, while Bendix Systems Division on North Campus and Bendix Re- search Division of Detroit are ir- radiating electronic components to test their reliability in a space environment. Wayne State Univer- sity is irradiating solid materials in a study of basic properties. St. Joseph Mercy Hospital ir- radiates cartilege for grafting, as well as animal food to make it germ-free for feeding animal colonies. Eye Corneas The Medical Center uses the Cobalt 60 source for sterilizing eye corneas. Radiation from the reactor con- sists of streams of neutrons, which are solid particles, as well as gam- ma rays, which are electromagne- tic radiation, very much like in- tense X-rays. Thle neutrons are used not only to p'roduce radioactive materials (Cobalt 60 is made radioactive by bombarding Cobalt 59 in a reactor, for example), but also as a probe to reveal atomic structure and energy levels. Although the reactor also has been used extensively by various PROFESSOR KERR industrial groups and firms, its' greatest use now is by the nuclear engineering and physics depart- ment, according to J. B. Bullock, reactor supervisor. Usage Rises "The reactor is running over, 400 hours a month now," he said, "with four experiments going con- tinuously. Our usage is up about 40 per cent over last year." At two megawatts, the reactor is exceeded in power by no other university research reactor in the country, and, Bullock believes, none is used more. The entire Phoenix research fa- cilities are unique in Michigan. Besides the reactor and Colbalt 60 sources, the Phoenix labs have two hot cells, for remote handling of radioactive materials, the only ones in the state. In addition, there are several laboratories for physics, chemistry, zoological and bacteriological experiments, and greenhouse and an aquarium. (Continued from Page 1) lift a finger to help Romney's gubernatorial campaign. Hard Fight At the Republican convention, Romney fought hard but unsuc- cessfully to strengthen the 1964 platform on the matter of extrem- ism and civil rights. Virtually all observers agree that implementation of the new federal civil rights law will be a major campaign issue on the na- tional level, in view of Goldwater's vote against passage of the meas- ure. "One of the clouds hanging over this campaign is the question of how much it's going to turn on the views of and the pressures brought to bear by the racist and segregationist elements in this country," GOP National Commit- teeman John Martin of Grand Rapids says. No Appeal "I thinkathe Republican party has to stand squarely on this problem and has to repudiate that kind of thing. It has to make sure this campaign is not conducted with any appeal to elements of that sort. "The question of extremism is also tied to this civil rights situa- tion because many of these ex- tremist groups are also racist gIoups. So for that reason our position on extremism was also related to our position on civil rights." Martin said there are extremists in Michigan who want "to capital- ize on fear and hate and bigotry and who want to do it through the Republican party. No Temptation "We can see what's going on around the country," Martin add- ed. "And it's absolutely vital that this party of ours not be allowed to be tempted by any of the pos- sibilities that some of the extrem- ist groups throw up to suggest that there may be votes to be gained by particular positions of that kind. "We have the situation reason- ably under control in Michigan, but they keep trying." Martin was disturbed by the booing and catcalls which re- verberated from the packed gal- leries in the Cow Palace the night New York Gov. Nelson Rocke- feller, a Goldwater critic, spoke to the convention. No Expression "This is typical of these groups, that is, a complete intolerance," .Detroit Eyes .Defense Cut Four out of five Detroiters be- lieve that a major cutback in De- fense spending would have serious or disastrous effects on the econ- omy, and two out of three Detroit community leaders believe that such a cutback would have man- agable or no bad effects on the health of the economy. Prof. Otto Feinstein of Wayne State University, has found that the evidence supports the com- munity leaders and that the in- formation- of the average Detroit- er, although rooted in the history of the state, is wrong and can have negative effects on our econ- omy and foreign policy. His new study, "Michigan Eco- nomic Myths: Defense Spending and Employment since World War II," was recently published by Wayne State's Monteith College. In it he indicates that less than 21,000 Michigan workers are en- gaged in defense or defense relat- ed work and that less than two per cent of income and employ- ment are either directly or in- directly generated by defense ex- penditures, verifying his first study. he said. "They don't want the other point of view expressed." An appeal to baser emotions is an easy thing to do, Martin be- lieves. "It's a typical demogogical ap- proach which you get in politics in certain periods of our history," he said. "You have to fight it, and if you don't fight it, it takes over." Similar Campaign Martin said Romney wants to conduct a campaign along the lines he believes are right-and expects the national campaign to be conducted along similar lines. "But I don't think we're goingj to accept the business of high level from the candidate and a low level from all these people down the line who are part of the organization. "We're not going to be a party to something like that." "I don't suspect Goldwater of any double motives on this, but I do know a lot of other people who would be glad to see that kind of thing developed and pro- moted." Mrs. Elizabeth H.
